*********************************************
For my card I have used the Private
Ryan set which has a postcard, camo tent and little soldier in 3 formats
for only $3. Head over to the Daisy Doodles Store to check these out and all the other great digi’s that
are available !
I
coloured in the image using Promarkers & Flexmarkers and some metallic
Promarkers for the tent pegs and pole and tufts of grass. I covered the front
of my card with brown paper and used a very dark green, crumpled it up and
inked the creases and distressed the edges by tearing and scuffing with the
edge of my scissors. I have used a shoe
lace in a camo pattern as a manly version of ‘ribbon’ and created my own
sentiment and die cut it using a Quickutz cookie cutter die, distressed the edges
and mounted with 3d foam.
The
sentiment is below and you are most welcome to download for yourself. It is in
both JPG and PNG format and I would appreciate it if you use it you link back
to me and leave me a comment so I can pop along and see your project.
I
am really pleased with how this turned out. I am not normally very good with
cards for men or boys but with the help of some fab images I think I’ve not
done a bad job with this one J
I hope you will pop over to the blog
to see the lovely creations on there from the rest of the DT and we look
forward to seeing your entries in for our Masculine challenge.
